Selena Gomez posts, quickly deletes video crying about Trump's ICE deportations and displaying Mexican flag

Actress and singer Selena Gomez shared and then deleted a video of her crying about ICE deportations and expressing her wish she could "do something."

The American-born "Only Murders in the Building" star posted a video to her Instagram story with a caption of "I'm sorry" along with a Mexican flag emoji.

"All my people are getting attacked, the children. I don't understand," she said while crying. "I'm so sorry, I wish I could do something, but I can't. I don't know what to do. I'll try everything, I promise."

She deleted the video shortly afterward, and according to a purported screenshot, posted another, now-deleted Instagram story simply with a caption saying, "Apparently it's not okay to show empathy for people."

The video was widely mocked across social media, such as by talk show host Piers Morgan, who wrote, "Posting yourself weeping over illegal immigrant criminals being deported is a new level of absurd celebrity narcissism."

"In the 1970s, my aunt crossed the border from Mexico to the United States hidden in the back of a truck," she said. "My grandparents followed, and my father was born in Texas soon after. In 1992, I was born a U.S. citizen thanks to their bravery and sacrifice."
